My Love Debts Are Everywhere!-Chapter 516: Leon’s Nightmare

Athena walked over to the chair on the right side of the table and sat down.

"Huh?"

She raised an eyebrow slightly as she looked at Leon, who stood with a stiff expression.

"Why are you silent? Come, let's sit and eat together," she said warmly, her enthusiasm clear. "Usually, the servants prepare everything for me, but this is the first time I'm cooking on my own. I'm sure it'll taste great."

At her confident words, the corners of Leon's mouth twitched.

"Can those even be called food?" Leon thought, but the words got stuck in his throat.

With a long sigh, he nodded in resignation and walked over to the chair opposite Athena, sitting down.

Staring at the black, oddly shaped food in front of him, Leon swallowed hard and silently prayed to the gods that he would survive after eating it.

"Let's eat, Leon! I'm sure you'll like it!" Athena said, her eyes filled with hope.

Leon glanced at her, his tone heavy as he asked, "Before I eat, can you tell me what ingredients you used?"

In his entire life, this was the first time he had seen food with such a strange shape.

Honestly, it made him want to vomit, and he couldn't even bear to look at it, let alone eat it.

But when he saw Athena's hopeful expression and remembered that it was her first time cooking, he forced the words of rejection back down.

"The ingredients? I'm not sure," she replied, looking confused. "I just threw in the meat, vegetables, and fruits, then stirred them. Oh! I also added sugar and some pepper. But I'm a bit confused because the sugar tastes bitter, almost like it's salt."

Leon: "..."

Done. His fate was sealed. If he ate it, he knew his stomach would be in trouble. Worse, he might even faint.

After all, his body was already weakened, and without any holy power to neutralize the poison, he was in real danger.

Tonight was definitely going to be his nightmare.

Grinding his teeth, Leon scooped up the food and forced it into his mouth.

As soon as the bitter, sour taste and the sticky, slimy sensation hit his tongue, his eyes widened in shock.

He wanted to spit it out, but when he saw Athena's excited, hopeful expression, he forced himself to swallow with a reluctant chew.

"Is it good, Leon?" Athena asked, her eyes shining with expectation.

Tears welled up in Leon's eyes as he nodded stiffly, like a puppet. "It's... it's really good..."

Athena sensed something was off with Leon's behavior but quickly brushed it aside.

"Phew! I'm so glad you liked it. I was worried it would taste weird," she said with a relieved sigh.

Leon wanted to scream, "Damn! This is horrible!"

But he could only curse inwardly, forcing himself to continue eating that disgusting food.

Every second felt like an eternity, and his face grew paler with each bite.

Fifteen minutes passed before Leon finally managed to finish his meal.

"Finally..." He leaned back in his chair, holding his stomach.

His golden eyes were slightly red, and tear stains streaked his cheeks.

If given the choice between facing the Evil God or eating Athena's cooking again, he wouldn't hesitate to choose the former.

"Ugh..." A wave of nausea spread through him, making him come dangerously close to spitting up the food he had just swallowed.

Athena, still basking in the joy of having her food eaten by Leon, gasped and quickly stood up.

"Are you okay?" she asked, concern in her voice as she rushed to his side.

With a pale face, Leon shook his head weakly and replied, "I'm... fine. Don't worry."

Athena frowned when she saw Leon's pale, miserable condition. "Why is your face so pale? Do you have a fever? Or is it from the intense training this afternoon?"

That seemed like the only possible cause of Leon's condition.

As for the food? Hehehe... No way!

Leon had said it was delicious, which meant it had to be good. After all, Leon wouldn't lie to her.

Plus, she was confident in her skills—everything came easily to her with just one try.

So, that couldn't possibly be the issue.

"Ahem!" Leon cleared his throat and tried to sound strong. "Don't worry. It's nothing serious. I'm probably just too tired."

Athena eyed him suspiciously but decided not to press further.

With a charming, confident smile, she picked up another plate of food and handed it to Leon.

"Since I cooked two dishes, let's try this one too. I'm really confident in this one," Athena said proudly, her enthusiasm contagious.

Leon: "(⊙ _ ⊙ )"

...

The next day...

"What happened to you, Fated One? Why do you look tired and pale?"

The dragon ancestor looked at Leon, who looked limp in front of him with a doubtful and worried look.

Leon forced a smile and replied, "I'm fine. Don't worry."

Last night, after finishing two dishes made by Athena, his stomach acid rose, forcing him to vomit in the bathroom for ten minutes.

Not only that, he also experienced severe stomach pain and had to spend an hour in the toilet.

He had not felt such weakness and helplessness for a long time, making him miss the time when his holy power and chaos power had not been sealed by Miranda.

The dragon ancestor felt suspicious but said nothing and just gave a small nod.

"If anything is uncomfortable, please tell me," he said solemnly.

Leon nodded and then changed the topic. "In that case, what training are we going to do? Run another thousand laps?"

He stretched to warm up and gazed at the spacious courtyard he was in.

Although running around the courtyard was tiring, he did not complain at all. As long as it could strengthen his physique, why not?

"No, our training session is different this time," the dragon ancestor replied while shaking his head.

Leon raised an eyebrow and looked at him curiously. "So, what kind of training?"

The dragon ancestor grinned. "I will open fifty muscle points in your body."

Leon was slightly surprised and confused.

"Opening fifty muscle points? What's that?" He asked, winking.

"The opening of fifty muscle points is a method to strengthen the body." The dragon ancestor folded his arms with an indifferent expression. "You may not know, but the human body is very unique and extraordinary. Within the human body, there are muscle points that, if activated, can increase one's potential and strength. There are fifty of them in total, which is why they are referred to as the fifty muscle points."

Leon's eyes widened at his explanation. He had not expected such a thing to exist. This was truly valuable new knowledge.

"Alright, I understand," Leon said with a serious expression. "Then, let's start the session."
